Autumn Internationals only mean one thing: a huge chunk of our squad, England, Argentina and South Africa, won’t be available. Then with rest week ends and The Six Nations I’m not sure how teams like us, Sarries, Exeter, Saints, Bath and now most likely Quins will get on if some players get injured.
Sorry: too many internationals ( not players)!

I guess it could even things out a little if more teams lose players.

Potential match-day squad during November internationals:
1. F. van Wyk
2. Youngs (c)
3. Cole
4. Green
5. Synman
6. Brink
7. Reffell
8. Liebenberg
9. Wigglesworth
10. Burns
11. Olowofela
12. Socino
13. Taute
14. Potter
15. Hegarty
16. Clare
17. Whitecombe
18. Hurd
19. Chessum
20. Illione
21. JVP
22. Porter
23. K. van Wyk

This is accounting for the possibility that all our current international players (including uncapped Henderson and Leatigaga) are selected for their respective countries. A bit unlikely we’ll lose all of them, but you’ve got to account for all possibilities.

You are assuming a lot, I doubt Skippy will pick many Tigers, he doesn't seem to like Genge and I doubt Wells will get another shot either, though both deserve to. YBY and Ford may well be no longer required either, who knows what he'll think of our other backs, all of whom should be looked at with a World Cup looming in the background, we should be looking at younger players, but Jones is only interested in the next game.
South Africa are unlikely to want our lads either looking at the team picked for the Lions test, so we may lose a couple of our Pacific islanders and possibly a Scotsman or two?

It was very much an unlikely possibility, but we have to be prepared for all eventualities.

Well, van Staden and Wiese have been wanted enough to have been kept in the wider squad for the Lions series, which bodes them well for being selected for the Rugby Championship (when is our Jasper going to get a rest?!).

I can see Jones playing Wells in the way he has wanted Charlie Ewels to play, but on the other hand I can also see him being a one-cap wonder so who knows.

Would rather pay student prices for Amazon than fork out for Sky.
